The holidays were approaching. Despite the problems that had occurred between the Akatsuki and the other hidden villages, for a week, the ninja world would set aside these problems and have a truce if you will. Just so everyone can spend the holidays together, happily.

This temporary treaty would only occur during the holiday months in winter, which as one might guess would be October through December. Three months, each year the ninja world would be at peace, the only time this tradition would be broken, would be during war. After all, these months were meant to spend time with your family, no matter how dysfunctional.

Authors note: Just a neat little Idea I had. I'll be going through all the members of the Akatsuki and their adventure's via the Holidays. Send me a message with the name of one of the member's, and I'll write about how they spent their three months! (Orochimaru and Team Taka will be included in this since they are members of the Akatsuki.) Each story might be at different timelines depending on the Character, since most members are dead, I'll be writing about when they were alive. I'll write in bold the time each story takes place so no confusion is involved. (:
